144: Chapter 144: Physical Strength Maxed Out, Intelligence Zero!

At the same time.

Inside Hegemon Body Sect's War Heaven Peak.

"Junior Sister Yurou, open the door, it's Senior Brother Gu Qing."

In front of an Immortal Cave, a Male Cultivator with an exceptionally robust physique was anxiously banging on the stone door. Although the stone door was reinforced with a high-level Formation, faint cracks had already appeared.

"Junior Sister, I know you're in there!"

The stone door suddenly opened, and a graceful, exceptionally beautiful woman with a cool demeanor slowly walked out.

It was Xiao Yurou!

After Cultivating the Legacy Cultivation Technique of the War Heaven Overlord Body, she could now completely control her physique with ease, and her combat power had also advanced to a higher level.

Her red lips parted slightly, and she said indifferently:

"Senior Brother Gu Qing, please stop bothering me."

"I already have a Dao Companion!"

Gu Qing grinned, his facial muscles bulging, making him look terrifying:

"A Dao Companion? Who? Why have I never seen them?"

"But, even if you have a Dao Companion, so what?"

He slowly approached:

"Junior Sister, you possess the War Heaven Overlord Body, and I, Senior Brother, possess the Bedrock Hegemon Body. One is the sharpest spear, and the other is the strongest shield."

"You and I are a match made in heaven!"

The greed in Gu Qing's eyes almost materialized:

"As long as we combine, our offspring will surely be the most powerful Body Cultivator!"

Xiao Yurou recoiled in disgust:

"Madman!"

"Madman?!"

Gu Qing's pupils constricted, and veins immediately bulged on his face.

He possessed the Bedrock Hegemon Body, and his Body Cultivator Aptitude was exceptionally outstanding.

But while one window opened, another closed.

Since childhood, his intellectual development had been very slow, and he was thick-skinned and immensely strong.

So, when Gu Qing dealt with matters, he only used the most direct methods, rarely using his brain.

This also led to others secretly calling him a "madman" or "reckless brute"... these words became his sore spot!

"Do you think I don't have a brain?!"

Gu Qing suddenly roared, his muscles bulging all over his body:

"You're using a Dao Companion to fob me off!"

"Do you think I didn't notice that your primal yin is intact?!"

"Since you don't want to be my Dao Companion, then die!"

His upper garment suddenly burst, revealing his hairy chest, and the Soul Transformation Perfection pressure erupted.

The punch wind generated by his swing actually caused cracks to appear in the Immortal Cave's protective Formation.

Seeing this, Xiao Yurou frowned, and a golden Spiritual Qi storm erupted around her.

Although she was only at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivation now, she still threw a punch without hesitation.

Boom!!

The two forces collided, and half of the entire Immortal Cave was instantly shattered.

Xiao Yurou grunted and flew backward, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

Gu Qing approached with a sinister grin:

"Junior Sister, you think your cultivation can contend with me?!"

"I'll give you another chance, surrender to me, and I can spare your life..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yurou snorted coldly:

"Never!"

"Very well! Then you shall..."

Suddenly, a burly middle-aged man appeared between them, raising his hand to easily block Gu Qing's fist. No matter how much force Gu Qing exerted, he couldn't advance an inch.

"Uncle Hong, are you going to stop me?"

The newcomer was Hong Yue, the Peak Master of War Heaven Peak, a Body Integration Cultivator, and also the Master of True Disciple Xiao Yurou.

Hong Yue glanced at the shattered Immortal Cave behind him, then looked at Xiao Yurou, and said helplessly:

"Gu Qing, you go back first."

"Why?"

"Go back!"

Hong Yue roared, and Gu Qing could only unwillingly glance at Xiao Yurou before leaping up and rapidly departing.

"Master..."

Xiao Yurou spoke faintly, staggering to her feet.

Hong Yue waved his hand:

"No need to say more, your Master understands it all."

Gu Qing's actions were also implicitly condoned by him, but he hadn't expected him to go so far this time.

After a moment of thought, he showed a kind smile:

"Yurou, Gu Qing is just a bit impatient, he's essentially a good person, don't take it to heart."

He flipped his hand and took out a storage ring, handing it to Xiao Yurou:

"This is your Master's compensation to you. It contains your Cultivation resources and some healing Medicinal Pills."

"As for this Immortal Cave... you can move to the Immortal Cave next to your Master's."

"The Spiritual Qi there is more abundant, and it's safer."

Xiao Yurou silently accepted the storage ring, her head bowed low:

"Thank you, Master..."

Hong Yue nodded, and his figure flickered, disappearing.

Xiao Yurou clenched her hands tightly, her fingernails digging deep into her palms. When she looked up again, only determination remained in her eyes... After the teleportation Formation stopped and started, and Heaven Battle led them to experience the local customs of various places in the Central Region while traveling.

Su Mo and the others finally arrived at the territory where Hegemon Body Sect was located.

Ahead, the mountains were majestic, each peak seemingly cleaved by a giant axe, exuding a sharp, keen aura, and the air was filled with a faint scent of blood.

"Hmm~ this is the smell."

Heaven Battle took a deep breath, revealing an intoxicated expression.

Seeing their puzzled looks, he smiled mysteriously:

"When I Cultivated Body Cultivator Cultivation Techniques before, I often came to this Body Cultivation Holy Land to spar with the Cultivators of Hegemon Body Sect."

"As for why it's called the Body Cultivation Holy Land, you'll know once you go inside later."

Li Xing raised an eyebrow and chuckled:

"Let's go, I can't wait to see that 'big oaf's' frustrated expression."

As soon as he landed, Su Mo showed a hint of surprise.

After looking around, he frowned even more.

He didn't see any Formations here, but his body suddenly sank when he stood on the ground, becoming twice as heavy as usual.

Heaven Battle thoughtfully explained:

"Do you feel it?"

"This is the special characteristic of Hegemon Body Sect."

"Hegemon Body Sect is built on a massive extraterrestrial stone. This stone contains a peculiar force field; the closer one gets, the stronger the crushing pressure becomes."

"Disciples of the Sect temper their muscles and bones in this environment from a young age, so their physiques naturally far surpass those of the same rank."

Su Mo nodded upon hearing this:

"So that's how it is."

Upon arriving at the Hegemon Body Sect's Sect gate, Heaven Battle chatted with the Disciples standing guard at the entrance.

Before long, a figure slammed down in front of everyone.

A burly, bearded man quickly walked up to Heaven Battle and punched him heavily in the chest, making a dull thud.

"Brother Heaven Battle, why didn't you say you were coming sooner!"

The burly man's voice was like a booming bell, and he had a hearty smile on his face:

"Last time we didn't drink enough, this time we must determine a winner!"

Heaven Battle was pushed back half a step but wasn't annoyed, instead laughing heartily and returning a punch:

"Luo Li! You scoundrel, your fists are still so hard!"

"Drink to your heart's content? I think you want to trick me out of my Spirit Wine!"

He pointed at Li Xing behind him and said boldly:

"However, this time, there's plenty of Spirit Wine."

Luo Li chuckled, following Heaven Battle's finger to the people behind him:

"Li Xing?! Ranked fifth on the deity transformation prodigy ranking!"

"Fellow Daoist Li, I've long admired you! I am Luo Li, an Outer Elder of Hegemon Body Sect."

He suddenly realized what Heaven Battle meant by 'plenty of Spirit Wine'.

With the Saint of Wine Immortal Sect here, how could there be a shortage of wine to drink?!
